Hi all, new member here.
I planted up a bed last year with some annual seeds that I *think* were from a packet labelled "cottage garden annuals", possibly from Suttons. I do know that there was Cosmos, poppy, cornflower, Californian poppies, as well as a few others that I don't recognise. One plant in particular that I didn't recognise I really like - please see pic below. Something like a yarrow or wild carrot, but I don't think the leaves match. This is unfortunately the best picture I took of it. If anyone has any idea, it would be most appreciated! Note there are white cosmos and other things nearby, but I think the foliage on this one is single, linear leaves - at least from what I can work out in the picture:
From the same packet of seeds is this pink flower - lots of separate, deep pink flowers on a vertical stem with pink stems and pink fringed leaves. I think I have some volunteers of this coming through and would like to keep. The best I have come up with so far after extensive Google image searching is Clarkia Elegans. Plausible?
thanks so much!

Might it be Lychnis coronaria alba???
Doesn't look right for umbellifer.
